Leonardo DiCaprio in freezing cold water… sounds familiar right?
It turns out, Leonardo DiCaprio is prepared to put his life on the line to save the ones he loves… his dogs!
On a day when the canines visited the set of Don’t Look Up, Leonardo DiCaprio and his two huskies, Jack and Jill, all ended up in a freezing lake.
While a part of Entertainment Weekly’s Around the Table for his new film Don’t Look Up, the 47-year-old actor confessed that when filming the Netflix film on a day when the dogs visited the set, he dived into freezing water to save his huskies, Jack and Jill.
During a sit-down with his Don’t Look Up co-stars Jennifer Lawrence, Meryl Streep, Tyler Perry, Jonah Hill, and the film’s director Adam McKay revealed the pet rescue.
DiCaprio added, “Basically, they both fell in a frozen lake. I’m not sure what you’re doing in a frozen lake.”
Lawrence, 31, contributed to the discussion by telling her side of the rescue story.
Lawrence explained, “One of the dogs fell in, and he leaped into the ice lake to save the dog. The second dog dove directly in after he pushed the first out of the water.”
DiCaprio went into detail about what happened when he and his two huskies got into the frigid lake water.
“Well, the second one started licking the one who was drowning, and then we were all in the freezing lake together,” he explained, adding that the encounter was particularly upsetting to his dogs, who are accustomed to the warmer waters of southern California.
“I’m sure you’re all curious; I was as well. He instantly got naked in the car,” Lawrence joked about what happened following.
DiCaprio and his 24-year-old model girlfriend, Camila Morrone, rescued the huskies in 2020.
Sally is the couple’s other husky.
This isn’t the first time DiCaprio has made news for saving a life by jumping into the sea. According to the news outlet, DiCaprio also rescued a man who had fallen off a yacht in St. Barts in 2019.
